@fronsac: Makes sense. The added screen size will only add to the demands on the battery. Still, I hope that they make enough changes to the OS so it's more than just a big ipod.

@baileyfwright: Definitely check it out! It's one of my favorites of all time. It's part of the His Dark Materials Trilogy. Let me know what you think.

@Rachel Fogg: I don't agree that Bayonetta is an example of a positive female role. I don't buy into the idea that women need to use their sexuality to be strong. That's not to say that I am offended by the character, I can take the joke just like anyone, but she is a joke and that's definitely not my idealized…

@CommentatorHatman: Nor should she. She's too busy kicking ass!

@Tyrunn: That turned out to be false information.

@baileyfwright: The Golden Compass movie killed me.

@R0bster: I like this idea of creating a back story for the characters. I've never done that before. I usually pick the answers closest to what I would pick, at least on the first play through. I might try out different options on the second play through, but that always feels a bit disingenuous. Perhaps if I…

I'm disappointed that this will be running a variant of the iphone platform rather than OS 10.XX, especially if the price is closer to an actual computer. Here are a few issues I can think of:

@Chris O'Brien: "Hey kids"...?

@Michael Andrew Fingers: It came with two controllers and Super Mario World, which was everything I needed for a long time. It's a good thing too, because it took me a long time to save up to buy more games.

@DrZaius: I always research things to an absurd degree before buying, but that's the exception, not the norm. I think most people do research to choose which brand or model to get. If you want a Wii, or more specifically, if your kids want a Wii, then there's only one choice, so it might not occur to people to…

@RealmRPGer: I agree completely. I think the PS3 is by far the best value with the fewest additional costs.

I don't know what it is about this game, but the videos always look interesting, and the screenshots always look really boring.

I used to play Extreme Pong. It was just like beer pong, except if the ball left the table, whoever grabbed it first got the next turn, no matter what. There were many superman-style dives and flipped over furniture to get that ball.

@vidhagans: I loved that game! I begged my parents to rent it all the time. Probably should have just bought it.

Everyone is acting like this guy is the world's biggest idiot because this is how all consoles work, but this guy has probably never bought a console before. Gasp!

@Jack McCauley: I think this happened to my nephew. He started playing COD and now he seems completely uninterested in any other games.

@Slagathorian: When I played the demo, it really did feel like the whole thing was someone playing a joke. I've never been into combat games, so I don't really have a strong opinion on the gameplay, but every single aspect was completely absurd. I found that to be kind of entertaining, but I doubt the novelty would…

@Halo_Override: @Livingtarget: can dance if He wants to!: I agree with both of you. The discussion is a lot more insightful and interesting than just listing some awards. This type of thing would be a cool addition to the reviews.

I think that the TV networks need to get over the entire idea of prime time. With our current technology, there's no reason that we need to schedule our lives around programming. I keep up with more shows now than I ever have with Hulu and Netflix and I don't spend a single minute watching any shows that I don't like.…
